NACA WARTIME REPORTS are reprints of papers origimlly issued to provide rapid distribution ofadvance research results to an authorized group requiring them for the war effort. They were pre-viously held under a security status but ~e now unclassified. Some of these reports were not tech-nically edited. All have been reproduced without change in order to expedite general distribution.

ABSTRACT The degree to which mixture-temperature data may be reduced to algebraic terms is
demonstrated and correlated in terms of the several pertinent engine-operating and design variables. A relatively simple equation has been found to express, with fair accuracy, variation in manifold-charge temperature with change in engine operating conditions. This equation and associated curves have been checked by multicylinder data, both test stand and flight, over a wide range of operating conditions.
